Celebrate the Festival of Colors with Pokémon GO
Keep your eyes peeled when you're near PokéStops during the festival. You're in for a delightful surprise that will add a splash of color to your day. Lure Modules will now last for an impressive three hours, turning your favorite spots into bustling Pokémon hubs for extended periods.
If you're on the hunt for the dazzling fish, Bruxish, activate some Incense as it will appear more frequently. The Incense effect lasts for two hours, except for the Daily Adventure Incense. Additionally, snap a photo each day to experience a special guest appearance and perhaps encounter a Shiny Smeargle photobombing your snapshots.
Floral Flabébé is making a stunning entrance, showcasing different colors depending on your region. Trainers in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa will find the Red Flower Flabébé, while those in the Asia-Pacific region will encounter the Blue Flower Flabébé. In the Americas, you'll spot the Yellow Flower Flabébé. Meanwhile, the White Flower and Orange Flower Flabébé could appear anywhere. Alongside these floral friends, keep an eye out for Drowzee, Magikarp, Natu, Aipom, Meditite, and Dwebble roaming around.
Mega Raids during the Pokémon GO Festival of Colors will feature Mega Swampert, adding an exciting challenge to the event. Field Research tasks come with event-themed rewards, including Stardust and encounters with some of the special Pokémon appearing during the festival.

In celebration of Holi, the Festival of Colours in India, Pokémon GO offers special bonuses exclusively for trainers in India.
